Be nice to people
Do you know what happens when you stand on two of those plastic chair mats (which the building’s previous occupants left behind), then lean against the wall in order to get a little further down for the shot you want?
I do.
What happens is that the top chair mat slides, silently and quickly, over the bottom one, and before you know it, you’ve landed on your ass on the floor.
But, as it turns out, sitting on the floor was actually a better vantage point to get this shot.
